Pros
Excellent Sr. Leadership. They are smart, balanced, talented, and engaged in the business. I continue to respect them, even as a former employee. Teknor offers great peers to work with, overall a really good company to work for from a work and lifestyle perspective. They make you feel like one of the family. Working there under leadership from the RIGHT MANAGER can result in a very fulfilling and rewarding career experience.
Cons
Some "middle managers" (business directors and the occasional VP) are dishonest in their portrayal of those who report to them. Like in many companies, there are middle managers who appear to lack a conscience, and will do or say anything to advance their career, even at the expense of those who report to them. Sadly, Teknor Apex has a few middle level managers like this in place, and they appear to have the ear of the Senior Management Team. Such director level managers do not engage with their subordinates. Instead they ignore them, do not return telephone calls or emails, do not train or guide them on expectations. They leave them to flounder and then end up blaming them, even making up things that are not true. My last manager at Teknor Apex was one of the worst of my career. Teknor's SMT is apparently very much unaware of some of the poor management practices of their director level personal, and how dishonest they can be.
